I'm glad I found this book at my local library. What a blast from the past! Loved it. Queen fans out there need to get their hands on a copy of this wonderful book that includes an array of unique pieces of memorabilia!! Promotional posters, tickets, letters, song lyrics. It's all in there. Plus, the book features forewords by Roger Taylor and Brian May.

This book reminded me of my primary school days when I used to sing We Will Rock You with my friends and pretend I knew all the lyrics hahah!



By the way, who else is excited for the upcoming Bohemian Rhapsody film?


Look at this amazing gif of Freddie holding the audience in the palm of his hands. Wow! He truly was a legend.

Why am I sobbing over someones death when I never knew them or was even alive at the same time as them? Reading about Freddie's death and then reading about the tribute concert really upset me 🥺🥺

This book was so wonderful. I honestly thought it would be a quick read but it took longer to read than expected - but it was fine because I spent longer learning about this amazing band.

This is such a perfect book for Queen fans, it has some great history about the members and the concerns and even the albums. There's also some great pictures, as well as things such as posters, letters to fan clubs, hand written lyrics to songs etc.

This was such a pleasure to read and I had so much fun reading it 😁

Being the huge Queen fan I am, I really enjoyed this. I received it for Christmas and I loved reading it. You get to thoroughly learn about Queen’s journey and the legacy they hold today. This will be something I always go back to and will love for a very long time.

Well kocham Queen całym sercem, więc na co innego mogę ocenić tę biografię jak nie na 5?

Prawdziwa gratka dla fanów Queen.

Ukazuje pełną historię zespołu i po krótce opowiada o jej członkach. Książka podzielona jest na albumy, więc czytając o danym albumie słuchałam go i wam też to polecam.

Najgorszym aspektem książki jest strasznie mała czcionka i zdania, które urywają się i musimy przewinąć kilka kartek, zby je dokończyć. Brakowało mi też wspomnienia o Mary w rozdziale przeznaczonym dla Freddiego. Poza tym wykonanie jest fenomenalne. Dużo zdjęć, ciekawostek, plakatów itp. Historia opisana jest zgrabnie i ciekawie.

Obowiązkowa pozycja dla każdego fana Queen. Jestem pewna, że będziecie zadowoleni.
